If I have a deep understanding of the nature of suffering, why should not I end that suffering in this life time and escape instead of trying to save other people?

Dear User, I understand that you are feeling overwhelmed and conflicted about your desire to end your own suffering versus your desire to help others. It can be difficult to balance our own needs with the needs of those around us, especially when we have a deep understanding of the nature of suffering. From a Buddhist perspective, it is important to remember that we are all interconnected and that our actions have consequences not only for ourselves but for those around us as well. We cannot truly escape suffering until all beings are free from suffering.
From a psychological perspective, it is natural to want to prioritize our own well-being and escape suffering. However, it is important to remember that helping others can actually be a powerful way to alleviate our own suffering. When we help others, we feel a sense of purpose and connection that can bring us joy and fulfillment. Additionally, helping others can help us gain perspective on our own problems and remind us that we are not alone in our struggles.
In terms of coaching advice, I would suggest that you focus on finding a balance between taking care of yourself and helping others. It is important to prioritize self-care and ensure that you are not neglecting your own needs in the process of helping others. However, it is also important to remember that helping others can be a powerful way to alleviate your own suffering. You may want to consider finding ways to help others that align with your own values and passions. This can help you find joy and fulfillment in your efforts to alleviate the suffering of others.
